2012!

2012-01-09T07:26:00.000-08:00

happy 2012!

this new year celebration has been interesting.

i have always loved the simple and budget travelling experience. i would consider myself a backpacker and take the road less travelled. having been to the run down poor and not so nice places, this new year celebration i had celebrated the other extreme of life. not too extreme but good enough to be different.

so, whats the difference between these experiences, i think the biggest difference is the involvement. when travelling big, i dont have to think too much. everything has been settled and actually there are only those few stuff to do or eat as you have to have the best. so, i am just a follower. when travelling in budget, everything is new. no one knows what you should do go or see. everything is an experience and you could do anything possible. walk on the road and you decide to rent a bike or car and you do it, or decide to try this stall that looks suspicious not knowing or caring if its by a famous chef or freshest ingredients (as long as it looks clean enough).

of course being luxurious give the best accomodation with actual working toilet where i would want to spend some time on myself rather than just cleaning myself up. and the fluffy bed and pillows i could sink into knowing i wouldnt get bed bites the next day and actual working heater or air con. the comfort...

basically i am glad i had experienced both but cant wait for my next backpacking experience

congrats andi!

aussie

2011-12-19T00:04:00.000-08:00

this blog post is dedicated to adarina low yuen kee!!!

this was my second trip to aussie world. down under. thou i did not meet hugh jackman lookalike... i remembered how much i love that place. i was surprised how much i rem from our previous trip.

first and foremost the most iconic structure for our entire trip... opera house! i think we visited this place like 2 million times on our first trip. spent so much time and took so many pictures of this place it brings back so much memories!

i even rem this mac! close to the opera house which we ate in cos we did not have alot of money and it was late and it was the only thing we could have that time. oooohhhhh....

this is bondi beach!!! the first time i took up surfing! while ada waited for me. first time i successfully stood on the board and so proud of it! so beautiful....

last but not least melbourne. i miss great ocean drive but did not have time to revisit that place and everyone thinks its boring T____T

overall i love this trip thou i was more like a slave making everyone happy and just doing whatever they ask me to but i am glad i went and rem most of the things on my first trip. it was good cos we did different things. i am still amazed how much we travelled on our own previously and managed to visit so many places without renting a car and relying on public transport while we were just 19!!! ADA!!! how time flies!!!!

bird nest..

2011-10-17T07:37:00.000-07:00

as i get older i am beginning to appreciate all these chinese food esp those with health and beauty benefits >.,<

one of them *drumroll* would be bird nest. fortunately *erhm* my family has supply of it. but after listening to those horrific stories i realised how much risk people are taking from buying off the shelves bird nest! omg!

1. bleached bird nest. some manufacturers just bleached the bird nest to save labor cost of cleaning those bird feathers and other dirty stuff. to tell if its been chemically treated just smell it to detect burnt smell. thats what i was told

2. bird bugs! omg! apparantly there are these bugs that could be still living or its eggs still alive crawling despite all these. so if u buy off the shelves be very very very very careful. not funny

3. blood or golden bird nest. the reason they changed colours is cos of ammonia. this means its their pee or shit. so the only way to get coloured bird nest if its been left for too long or fed with fertilizers.

so far these are the only stuff i can think of. but if u girls wanna get some u can get fr my mum. not doing business here but guaranteed cleaner and better for health.... and most prob cheaper too haha

skinny vs fat...

2011-10-05T02:17:00.000-07:00

i have a qn...

why is it that skinny girls are more attractive than fat girls?!?!?!

humans are survival creatures. if we are survival creatures, wouldn't we be attracted to fat people instead of skinny? fat people would survive better than skinny people right? at least they would not starve to death as fast. maybe muscular people but to be attracted to skinny people doesnt make sense to me...

personally i wouldnt fancy a fat blubber guy but to choose between skinny and fat i guess i would prefer fat. plus it makes me look skinny :D

love SH!

2011-08-18T08:33:00.000-07:00

back in Singapore!

before i went SH, everyone said i would love the place. at first i was skeptikal. i dont usually love a place unless its really unique, but i really love SH. thou i cant really place why, and the too much drama taking place while i was there doesnt help either. i love SH!

i love SH cos every turn makes me feel like i am in a different place. every corner has something that surprises me. new an old both within a place. every day is a surprise if i bother to explore a lil more... shopping is tiring cos there are wayyyyyyyy too many places to shop and bargaining is a MUST and takes most of the shopping time. but every shop has something different to offer.

despite all the bed comments i heard about the people, i think they are pretty nice. thou they are prob not most service oriented people but generally they are nice and real and not fake.

basically i love SH

~phoneless...

2011-07-02T03:47:00.000-07:00

this is the story of rusmi trying to get connected again.

ever since i lost my phone to the shanghai sewage... i have been trying to get connected. OMG! its crazy!!! everyone is helping me but its not working. firstly i got a spare phone from a friend. turned out it doesnt work anymore. so i got a sim card and another spare phone fr another friend. i couldnt activate the phone no matter what. so i went to ask this hp shop and he told me i need a phone made in china -,-''' lets see if i could use another spare phone fr a friend or should i just get a proper phone?!?!?!? sigh... i think its fated for me to live here without a phone...

suzhou...

2011-06-29T10:49:00.000-07:00

I am so in love with Shanghai.

First time travelling alone in a foreign country!!! So scary but so exciting at the same time. I am glad I did it anyways. Buying train tickets is scary. The Q was long and people looks fierce but I manage to get my tix! And to top my single journey in foreign land, I dropped my phone in the public toilet. Major grossness…

The train was way better than I expected. I think its comparable to Japan even. Got to Suzhou safe and on time. Was approached by this lady who said she would drive me around for 100 yuen. Bargained for 80. Still a lil much I think considering she would make some from the places I am going, but that what I would spend on taxi by myself anyways. So… I guess its not too bad.

I like Suzhou. The train station is modern and reminds me of airport instead. Visited a few places in a few hours I am here. Did not manage to take the water boat since I am alone ☹ but I am sure I’ll be back and finally take the water boat. Went to 2 gardens and after that all gardens look the same.

Basically I survived Suzhou without a phone, with a stranger, with my broken mandarin and loving it!

~SF...

2011-06-04T02:02:00.001-07:00

last day in school in SF!!! and i realise i have never taken any pics of the school. has it been so long? what have i done here? and i am leaving in no time...

this time round i feel that i have done pretty much in SF. did not go to touristy places as much. not that local still but something different. has a decent place of my own and so sad i'll be leaving this place i am loving my place. and i want to go so many more places before i leave...

beside LA, steps of rome and golden bridge i did not go back to the same places i have been before. found so many new cool places.

i feel like i worked and played really this module. i am loving this module. i hope shanghai will rock too. june will rock!

~SF...

2011-05-09T00:34:00.000-07:00

San francisco!!!

this time experience in SF is really different. this time i am more... bay area. surrounded by chinatown, close to market street, near the marina. previously it feels like it was further away. saw some familiar places but it feels so foreign now. its not like NY where everywhere feels familiar. its a nice feeling, like discovering new things. i dont remember SF being this freezing cold.

have not taken any public transport so far. which means tons of walking around and muscle building and shopping! insaneness. but i still love abercombie. its weird cos i love it back 4 years ago too. and i had tiramisu at steps of rome! finally! love love love! yet to see the golden gate or my fav little village across the golden bridge.

realised how blessed i was to have someone driving me around the previous 2 past trips. miss the people who made the trip so fun! eeeehhhh.... i think this is the 4th time i've been to SF! first was with irene, then with meerah and jer, then with family and now! miss being driven and driving around here!

~new york again...

2011-05-01T21:43:00.000-07:00

new yorkkkkkkk...

omg! the sounds,sights, smell. i realised i love new york. i fell in love with new york again.

before coming here i really had difficulties remembering what we did here. being here and walking past the places we used to go bring back so much memories. we did pretty much everything there was to do in new york

irene!!! thanks for being so patient with me the other time. i was such a spoilt brat >,<

went to fix my apel last night and they actually changed my screen and cover for freeeeeee and so fast! i still in love with the service in state. they are the best. service oriented country. got to love that.

went to pay statue of liberty a visit today. she seems greener than the last time i was here. but it was a long time ago i am not sure if i rem correctly anymore. went wall street. did not realised how impt this place was when i was with irene and finally understood irene's excitement that time. sorry i was ignorant

walked all the way to empire state building! omg! we walked so much. went to many many of my once fav and still loving these stuff stores. it feels like time has stopped here. the brands are still the same the stuff they sell have changed in terms of design but pretty similar range.

still in love with new york....

~new york...

2011-04-30T00:49:00.001-07:00

Woke up this morning and it'll be my last day in london till aug... i have my stuff to pack still my luggage bursting anytime, praying not overweight time to check out from my home for the past 8 months goodbyes etc... yet to have time to be excited about new york and san fran but i am feeling it! cant wait for all the new experiences.

its a sunny peaceful morning after yesterday's royal wedding. good day to leave london.

i wonder if its a mixture of sadness i am eaving this place and excitement of new place that i feel rather numb. or maybe i am used to travelling and this is just another phase of my life. but this time i feel prepared. more or less...

did not manage to meet some people. but i am sure we'll meet again. the world feels so much smaller now as i know people from all over the world and be their friends. i know i will always have someone to go to wherever i go.

ready or not, new york here i come!!!

~spring or summer????

2011-04-25T18:06:00.000-07:00

~venice...

2011-04-12T00:38:00.000-07:00

missing madrid weather. it was 27 degreeeeee... now is 15 degree in rome. why like london?!?!?!?

so far italy is not up to my expectations yet. too high expectations?

venice was nice! the canels, architectures, and the food was good too. love wikitravel! and we ate tons of gelatos!!! like every gelato shop i will peak and decide if i should get another gelato.

the focus of this picture is not our faces but the architecture at the back!

~barcelona...

2011-04-08T00:33:00.001-07:00

let me blog about barcelona before i forget!

love barcelona. love architecture, people, food and weather!

i still cant believe we walked everywhere!!! we did not take any bus or metro. super strong!!! omg!!! we even walked up the hill to see the city view. thats how crazy we were.

sad that a few churches are under renovation but overall i love the little streets, the colourful houses, sights and sounds. its really like advertisements! i love wearing shorts again!!! i think i am going to tan my legs. its been some times since my legs seen any sun.

had touristy barcelona food which are tapas pallela and sangria. ate along touristy road on la ramblas. food sucks and sangria is made of cheap wine. haha... done all touristy stuff there. went to a decent spanish restaurant and got really good tapas and pallela. yummie~

let me sing... 1 day in barcelonaaaaaaaa~

~empty...

2011-04-05T02:01:00.001-07:00

i am still in london. *sob* after all that efforts i am still in london when i have close to 2 weeks of break! omg!!! its either i am not fated to go spain and italy or london just wants me to stay. without my passport back i cant even go to ireland or apply for my us visa. kill meeeeeeeee!

my room feels so empty now. realised how big my room is to fit 3 people with all the luggages and stuff.

i think this time round with ying we managed to cover all the touristy stuff that i can possibly do in london! and some outside london. i feel i accomplished something! i hope ying had fun too. basically we had done all possible touristy stuff. will blog about the itenary soon!

~private clinic...

2011-02-08T15:57:00.000-08:00

today is my first private clinic experience in uk. thanks to my cough and flu. found one which is super close to where i am staying.

they charge 100 pound for consultation. ok... dont worry i can claim from my insurance. i think...

it was the normal procedure with the nurse check my blood preassure, temp, etc etc... then the doctor came and asked me a bunch of qns and i told him the med i got from random supermarket and use his big ass thingy to listen to my lungs and stuff. at the end of it he declared i am super healthy. -____-'''

and he gave me a cough syrup and told me it might or might not work. if it doesnt work in a day just chuck it away. and my current medication is good enough and i should just continue whatever medication i am taking. -______________-'''

conclusion for 100 pound:

1. i am super healthy

2. given cough syrup which might or might not work and to chuck it away if it doesnt

3. my own prescription is more than good enough

~creepy old maintenance guy...

2011-02-06T00:42:00.000-08:00

ok... i tried to be not paranoid. but there's this old creepy maintenance guy who has the key to my room has been trying to be my "friend"...

first 2 times he went to my room was to fix something. i did not think too much cos i did not know whats the protocol or normal procedures. then the third time he opened my door and tell me he just wants to talk to me. then he tried to ask for my no and i was smart enough to tell him to call my room phone instead. i did not want to make a big fuss out of this but people tell me to report this incident. and coincidentally i met my accomodation dean and i told him the maintenance guy has been going in my room to repair stuff without me being notified. and he promised to look into it. but i did not mention the coming in my room just to talk part

good thing was that fatu was staying over with me these few days. good timing. so i felt safer with her around. but yesterday he called my room phone. no one call my room phone. so i knew it was him so i refused to pick up. but fatu insisted so i picked up and it was him and i immediately pass to fatu. and fatu was so fierce and asked him not to call back. i think the conversation went like this

guy: hello darling

fatu: i am not your darling and stop calling this number

guy: i just want to be your friend

fatu: i am not your friend and stop calling this number

after the call fatu made me report to the reception and so we did. apparantly someone reported that my room needed fixing the 2 times he came into my room to fix stuff but it wasnt by me. so now i have reported i am planning to buy a lock and screw into my door since i cant lock my door here and everyone seems to have the key to my room.

so the qn is... do i move out of this current place? when i am going for rotation in april to san fran or dubai? sigh...

~open couple...

2011-01-21T02:19:00.000-08:00

what i have learnt over this mba experience in terms of relationships... people are crazy!!! people turns crazy here. everyone making out with everyone and most unexpected people! and no one is committing and its getting crazy! i really thought nothing serious would come out of this bunch anymore. mostly the guys are just playing around. i did not expect any less but its crazy!

last night i found out about another unexpected couple! they are so close but so unexpected! at first i thought it'll be weird hanging out with them but then they were so open about it it becomes so sweeeeeeeeeet! i hope they would last. at least my impression of this bunch of mba would not be so terrible.

everyone is dating secretly and changing partners all the time. this is the only couple i know being so open about it. i wish them all the best in the world cos i think they are gonna need it. love them!

~natural history museum...

2011-01-12T16:09:00.000-08:00

one of my new year resolution is to party less and try to visit london's attraction e.g. visit museums in the weekends! my first museum visit in 2011 is the natural history museum. heard so much about this place and last weekend was beautiful! with sun and all. thou still cold but its such a nice day...

love the place. not only the displays but the building itself. the place is super huge. walking around makes me feel like the times in primary and secondary school life when learning about vocanoes, planets, human body and dinasours! dinasours are the main attraction there i guess. its really impressive still thou i have seen in the state.

interesting place, super huge and freeeeeee... no camera so no pics but took these with my bb. this is pics of bird eggs. i have to respect them cos the birds help to fund my life here. so long live bird species!

~snow snow snow!!!

2010-11-30T02:21:00.001-08:00

snow snow snow!!! first snow in london!!! cold but beeeeeeeeeeautiful! i miss yellowstone and japan!!!!

i am so glad that i am staying near a park. cant wait for the huge thick layer of snow with no people or vehicle making it ugly and dirty!

The George Carlin Theory

2010-11-23T08:47:00.000-08:00

The George Carlin Theory

The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean,
life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get
at the end of it? A Death. What's that, a bonus?

I think the life cycle is all backwards.

You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an
old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young, you
get a gold watch and you go to work.

You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your
retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for
high school.

You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have
no responsibilities. You become a little baby, you go back into
the womb, spend your last nine months floating ... and you finish
off as an orgasm!

2010-11-18T01:45:00.001-08:00

oke... ... i am spending wayyyyyyy too much time with my group. at least it has been fun so far. this time round we had meeting at jose's place. how nice is that! and he made us food! walahy! he's so sweet! he's by far the sweetest and most thoughtful guy i have ever met! oke... i am not falling for him but guys out there should pick up a thing or two here... erhm...

yes he made us cheese fondue! unfortunately i am not a big fan of cheese but i am ok with it. so i still liked it. but the rest loved it! so its all good. and he made this italian finger food below which i totally <3 he made with tomatoes, olives, salt and pepper and mozerella cheese. he used only the best ingredients! soooooooooo nice! the cheese is apparantly made from buffalo milk instead of cows which is supposedly to be better. its heavenly!!!!

then the big qn comes up... did we manage to do anything? wahahaha.... well i think we did! we settled what we are going to do for the next coming weeks. i think its good progress >.<

~team titans...

2010-11-09T01:17:00.000-08:00

this post is decicated to my group. i totally totally heart my group!!! i cant imagine my education life if i am in a different group.

ont he most left is arun. he's 25! same age as me! omg!~ and the other indian guy is bhushan. also 25! and i thought i'll be the youngest. and both of then were married like 2 months b4 they started school... is that a trend? arun is pretty agressive and has alot to say bhushan is more laid back but really helpful

the other girl is yuki from japan! so cooooooool... i always wants to friend a japanese. she's so nice and so typical japanese and so fun to talk to. she just follows what the group decide and always wants to go home early. haha...

the most right is jose! i totally <3 him. he's the one who is always bringing chocolates and food for everyone and play music for the group and teach me salsa. i love the way he speak. the venezuelan accent. so cuteeeeeeee... i feel like pinching him ALL the time. he's always lost in discussion but thats still so cute.

last but not least is james born in uk but parents are from colombia. big, fun and super competitive. i totally <3 him too. he always make the group laugh and has so many things and stories to share and always give wrong info to other groups to confuse them and laugh at them. but since he's so fun everyone forgive and love him. super good pr skills!

we have tons of project groups! but we try to queeze everything within 1 day meeting in a week. but so far we are having 2 meetings. our meetings usually start at 1pm and end at 9 or 10pm! yes! thats how long it is. we discuss everything togather! phew... but its so fun and everyone always laughing and time flies and its so flexible that we can walk in and out of meeting anytime without disrupting the discussion and everyone trust each other. so far our work is fantastic!

there's this marketing presentation coming up and they are planning soooooooooo many things! walahy... they want to make corporate video and so many other stuff! super competitive! will try to upload the presentations some place. but totally heart this group!

~scottland...

2010-10-22T07:06:00.000-07:00

let me blog about my trip to scottland. i am so glad i did it. we went edinburgh which is main city in scottland. love the city. its where harry potter was born! so exciting. walking around town was so exciting. feels like in hogward.

edinburgh castle prob the main tourist attraction, but i think its over rated and not worth my money! damn! 1 of interesting things in scottland is prob haggis their national food. its made of eveything westerners usually don't eat in a lamb e.g liver intestines etc... traditionally they cook it in lambs stomach. but now its modernised. i ate that nearly everyday! need my supplements. haha... it taste... different at different place. first place taste like mince lamb and second has very strong taste of liver...

below is shape of heart on the pathway. its where everyone spit on. so when in edinburgh try not to step on this piece of heart and not for romantic or religious reasons. the guide mentioned she saw a guy kneeled on the piece of heart and propose to his gf. ultra grossssss... cos its beside a church... DO NOT ASSUME ANYHTING while u are in a foreign place!

we took 1 day tour outside edinburgh to visit the highlands... it remind me so much of yellowstone!!! i want to go back yellowstone!!! before i die at least... and below is the driver wearing the kilt. so cute! and they say usually the guys don't wear anything inside. hmmm...

last but not least scottland is well known for their whisky for alcohol lovers. alot of good reviews form those who tried. not that i know what a good whisky shd taste like...

~cleaning???

2010-10-07T12:20:00.000-07:00

in indo, driving is crazy not only cos of the traffic congestion pollution, pedestrian, but also these bunch of beggers who always park near traffic lights and either beg for some moeny or try to sell some food/drinks/newspaper tec etc etc and also beggers who would offer 'cleaning' service in return for small change.

surprisingly... i just saw the same people cleaning the cars here and asking for change! who would expect... things ain't that much difference isn't it?

~pao to...

2010-09-23T13:01:00.000-07:00

i feel that being in singapore we really take things for granted.

for example, i think sg education system is really good. it is really comparable to what i am learning now. at least the teachers and lecturers are moe trained. thou the lecturers are not world class but they are pretty good!

yesterday had my first quants exam (40%) think i did pretty well cos e lecturer was good, entertaining and the tips definitely helps. as we were divided into 2 groups we took the exam earlier while the other group took it later. someone from my group apparantly passed the exam paper around for the later group and someone from the later group complained to the dean and the dean came into the lecture room half way through the exam and stop the exam and postpone to today. super drama... everyone was guessing who are the idiots who pao to and gave the exam paper around. and why they did it. best guess is that e person who pao to din get to see the exam paper!

i think its damn bullshit. and i tot these group of people would be older, wiser and more mature. OMG! so childish... seriously in working world imagine u go pao to to ur boss that your competitor showed u his/her proposal. WTF! and everyone was saying how its not fair they got more hours to study and if they know the qns they would score better. -.-''' seriously... do they think when they are working in the future companies and they need funds to fund the co project the banks would approve the loan cos they are in the dean's list for MBA degree? soooooooo stupid! whats the point of sucking up to the lecturer when the most impt people u shd be sucking up to are the people sitting beside u whom one day could be ceo of some co who will be the one funding your company's project or the person who will be approving of a bidding project. seriously....

~first week...

2010-09-03T14:04:00.000-07:00

oke... its been a busy week and it'll get busier! haven had 9 to 5 days for a long time. time to get back to the society.

so far everything i am learning i have learnt in NTU. so weird... but its only the beginning. so i guess i have that slight advantage. we'll see...

everyone has been nice to everyone. first week. so everyone naturally say hi to everyone and try to rem each other's names and just be friendly. its a different environment as most are not business background. alot of ahneh... so far those i talked to are pretty nice. everyone is so different. but as usual there are those who are more vocal than other and those who ask too many senseless qn and wasting everybody's time.

no time for other things beside do my readings and download lecture notes...

~orientation 1...

2010-08-31T14:13:00.000-07:00

today's first day of orientation. honestly i kinda dreaded today cos i know i'll be meeting pple who are... old, boastful, think they know everything, boring (and i have to act interested in whatever they say) etc etc etc...

surprisingly they are not as old as i expected. surprise surprise... of course there are those old fogeys who boast bout their 1 billion rev to the co they worked for etc etc etc... who cares. but its all so much better cos i met a new friend! her name is fatima! she's a mixture of maya and ameerah! ameerah i found someone like u here! she's suppose to be fasting but she cant take it so she just decided not to half way and have lunch with me. she's so fun! and her eyes literally lit up when she's excited. i think my year will be fun with her around. cant wait!

other than that... all my classmates are either old, indian or boring. that sounds so bad. i know i am suppose to network and find out what they did in e past and how to make them useful to me but its so boring. tmr will be another boring day of oientation...

~harry potter school...

2010-08-30T14:35:00.001-07:00

Finally met my distance cousin today. she's adorable and super nice! i am so glad i have her here.

tmr is the start of sch! i am so nervous. its been more than 3 years since i went to a school! OMG! went to check out the sch and i am so disappointed!!! i was expecting harry potter type of sch but its not =((( majorly disappointed. its like some private sch like kaplan in sg. i know i know... land is scarce here. but i want my harry potter sch!!!

whats the chances that actually behind the plain boring exterior hidden is majestic looking wide spaces and historic looking school buildings!

~london vs sg...

2010-08-29T10:41:00.001-07:00

Ameerah! u are right! london is definitely very similar to Singapore. Actually i think london is a mix of sg and japan. haha... for some reason. maybe i just miss japan too much.

although i have heard london is notoriously expensive, luckily for me the exchange rate was to my favour so i don't feel the pinch too much. beside the super expensive accomodation, everything else in london is very similar to sg!

my most shocking experience would be phone price. firstly its so easy to get a new prepaid sim card in london. no need for IC or those nonsense. firstly i went to those aneh shop to buy. super cheated! he charged me 9pounds for a new sim card and he said i cant use it for blackberry only unlimited internet for 5pounds a month. he claimed i had to sign contract to get blackberry messenging system on my phone. nabeh... i went to the provider shop, sim card is free with min value of 5 pound! and 5 pound a month for unlimited bbm and internet! OMG!!! i feel like killing that ahneh... and if i top up min 10 pound per month i can get 60 min inter'l calls for free! i was so cheated. but! i love the pricing of their prepaid!

~sleeeeepyyyy....

2010-08-28T13:05:00.000-07:00

i don't know if its jetlagged or weather difference or time of the month is coming... i am tired and sleepy the moment i step outside the hostel >.<

but when i am in bed i cant sleep.

arrrrggggghhhhhh...

my tiny place with a guest!

~londoner...

2010-08-27T14:13:00.000-07:00

so many things i want to blog about!!!

oke... first off. prior to coming here, i have this very surreal feeling about the whole thing. maybe cos i got my visa a week before i got here. and i din expect my visa to be out or out so soon. or the rush and a million things i had to settle. but when the plane landed... i had a slight panic attack. suddenly i realised i am on a foreign land and there's no 1 could save me if i need help! imagine how long it'll take for someone i know to save me if i need anything! phew... luckily it was just a minor one.

london weather sucks! rain most of the time and temp is about 15 degree with winds so strong. hate that my shoe was wet half the time and made my feet disgusting >.<

besides that i love everything else!!! loved the buildings. every building is different and has its own character. love the shopping! OMG!!! i have yet to go to any factory outlets. not cheap but i am impress and loving it! bought a trench coat and boots. feels like a londoner! totally! thou nto cheap but hate the rain. i feel its totally worth my money! cant wait to go factory outlets!

~wisdom less...

2010-08-18T06:41:00.001-07:00

today onwards i can no longer proclaim myself perfect. i had minor oral surgery... a.k.a wisdom tooth extraction. yes... i am wisdom less

another full of first time today. first time had part of my body stiched up first time surgery first time got my widom tooth removed.

it wasn't as bad as sooooooooooooo many pple had described it to be. maybe cos my dentist was really good. i was quite thankful she covered my eye so i wouldn't have to see anything. no pain up till now. no swelling, no heavy bleeding and i ate so i guess it was a relatively good experience

i know y dental clinics are so scary! u see these pple walking around covered in plastic suit with hair bundled up and surgical mask. and the sound! OMG! they are so scary. so many equipments sound. if there r some screaming sounds i prob would never step into another dental clinic ever again.

overall i love my dentist and she made e whole process pleasent! yay!

~endoscopy...

2010-07-28T10:09:00.000-07:00

today is a major major day for me

today is e day i did endoscopy!

like what everyone says, i cant rem anything. basically i had a good sleep.

its such strange feeling. it feels like going for a major surgery. first time wearing hospital gown, first time sedated, first time being pushed on the hospital bed, first time being poked on e butt/mouth/back of my palm(for sedation). so many first time! being pushed while being on e bed is really like those drama. u see the celing move and pple around u working and the nurse pushing. feels like i was in drama scene

i wasn't scared or nervous or anything since i knew i prob cant rem anything. but i was nervous bout being injected through the back of my palm! good thing my veins are super visible and to think i used to find them ugly. now i am in love with them!

glad all went well and i woke up without feeling groggy at all! doc pronounced me well and healthy except for minor piles and some red looking stuff which she cut off for furthur analysis. doesn't worry me too much. but i think my doc is really good!

some photos for memories. and pic of my anus! u been warned!

i got souveneirs fr the hospital. cool...

~reversal of role...

2010-07-20T07:44:00.000-07:00

as i get older... i realised there's this change with my parents. my mama is getting more bo chup while my papa is getting more concern about us... he will be the one worried if get back safely or we have what we need. not that overly concern yet but can see the changes. he used to be the more bo chup one. hmmmmm... i think my papa is getting in touch with feeling things. what happened to my mama then!?!?!??!

~bali...

2010-07-01T09:11:00.001-07:00

i want to blog about bali. thou its majorly overdue... have to give the bali host the priority blog entry

i think bali is really heaven on earth. thou i been to many beaches, not that i am a pro at rating beaches or i am bias cos its in indo but its really the best place on earth! i would say its better than redang and hawaii!

there are so many activities u can do there. super touristy and pricey... but i love that place. its far beyond what i imagined. i heard so many different stories about that place. it seems like everyone does different things temple visiting, white water rafting, beach activities, sun tanning, diving, golf, fishing, SHOPPING, clubbing so much much more. so u seriously got to plan b4 going bali.

i totally miss the shopping!!! thou super over priced but i love the dresses! thou my luggage and my ward robe is spewing clothes i cant help but i want go back bali to buy more!!!

rough guide fr my bali trip...

1 day car rental + driver could bargain for bout Rp300k - 400k
dresses usual first price is about Rp70,000 can bargain up to Rp40,000 or even Rp25,000 if u are really good
sea sports usual first price about Rp200,000 depending on type of sea sport. just walk around and u could prob get for Rp100,0000 instead

*impt: do not trust ur driver. thou he says that place is best it doesn't mean so. i am so convinced they get comm fr e places we go.

food to buy...

1. peanut - apparantly they r quite good so far highly recommended by my maid and i think its pretty decent
2. coffee - highly recommended by a coffeee drinker. as a non coffee drinker no comment.

which brands to buy, i have no clue either...

i want to go back to bali!!!!

~congrats july!!!

2010-06-18T07:38:00.000-07:00

Having attended countless of weddings... i din think i would be impressed by any weddings anymore. i mean... what could you expect in a wedding dinner. its getting so typical. dinner, some entertainment, loads of well wishes. etc etc etc... its so typical. even in bali. thats what i thought.

surprisingly it was a whole day event! my first whole day event wedding. beside my aunt. it starteed rather typical and customary. with prayers and joss sticks and tea ceremony. and those yet to be married off got ang pao! yay! me incl! not much but still exciting. on the day u weren't expecting anything. the bride looks so elegant and pretty! so do we erhm....

afternoon they had more prayers by monks and church ceremony! it was soooooooooooo romantic! and the bride walked down the aisle accompanied by her dad with stunning sea background with flowers along the way and TV broadcasting love everything! it was picture perfect! nothing could have gone wrong. every single pic would have taken every breath. that must ahve been every girl's dream and maybe even more!

since wee couldn't sit still while they were chanting and doing their stuff we walked around to take pics! who could have stayed still with all e stunning backgroud?!?!?! i assume the theme would be pink with all the pink stuff around. everything was perfect and dreamy and oh-so-sweet... i guess it must have worth every cents they spent. i wish the day din end so fast...

the couple finally came out of the place! they released baloons and doves! nice ending! which was followed by cocktails. we have no pics of cocktails cos its pretty dark and everyone so elegant drinking wine and champagne we so pai se take pics look so noob! but the champagne was nice! so was e red wine... live band was so romantic too!
sneak peak of the little place where they had ceremony...

after cocktail its the dinner! the grand entrace of the couple and their family. then we had bbq dinner. its buffet style but e food is great! they serve this super gigantic prawns which was super yummy!!! they had magicians, live band, even FIREWORKS!!!! seriously!!! that was the most impressive! i was glad e weather was so good for everything outdoor!

finally group pics!

when we thought the event ended... they ahve after party event! at the ballroom of conrad. they got some 'dancers' to entertain us. OMG! and things got a lil more wild after that...

the wedding is soooooooooo over the top! i am so glad i was invited! cant wait to see if there are any other coming wedding that could top this! OMG!!! it feels like hollywood wedding! ok... shall stop gushing over the wedding now.

CONGRATS JULY AND DARWIS! totally loved attending your wedding! have a great life ahead!!!

~suay day...

2010-06-15T23:28:00.000-07:00

yesterday was one of the worst and suay day of my life...

it was suppose to be my happy last day in bali!

firstly... i hurt myself while trying to take photos of the others... slipped when i was on the stone path and my skin peeled and my slippers broke! i got to buy a new slippers and suffer!!!

secondly... after i checked in my luggage (i had to pay for luggage cos din tot i would bring back so much stuff) i decided to try to go buy this super nice sate babi and i only had 1 hr to my flight. din mange to get to the lady which sell the super nice sate but got another place which not bad but not as nice... rushed to airport and missed my flight -.-''' helo!!! where gpot flight take off so on time one!!! gggggrrrrrr....

so had to buy another flight tix fr another airline cos thats the earliest i can find. lazy to leave airport anymore or else got to go back to check in my stuff again. so i took lion air at 3.15pm. thinking at least i got my flight tix and i could go home and sleep and rest and get yesterday over and done with. we were going to land in jkt. so happy i was reaching home... e sky was nice and bright but when we were reaching airport e sky become dark! couldn't see a thing on e window... e plane couldn't land -.-''' the pilot had to wait in e air for about half hour to wait for e sky to clear. but it din! so we had to land in palembang while waiting for e sky to clear.

bout 1 hr later then we could fly back to jkt fr palembang. e flight takes bout 1 hr... so all in all it takes me like 7 hour flight fr bali to jkt! when usually it takes less than 2 hours. worst of all! my cousin's flight which was at 4.5p pm landed safely and on time! FREAK!!!!! i shd have bought the later flight which was cheaper...

well... after all that i reached home safely bout 10pm... at least i reached hoem safely... phew... so glad yesterday was over. lets hope everyday will be a better day fr now on

~europe...

2010-05-31T07:06:00.000-07:00

so many plans for coming months ahead. it feels so unreal. is it really happening? what am i going to do? how am i going to survuve? will i make it? will i like it? i hope i love every min of it all. it feels like its happening so fast but i know i have a few months to prepare for everything. but still feels so fast. i wonder if it feels like this when u are getting married too.

i am going to start a new chapter of my life. i am proud i feel that so far i have lived my life pretty full. this will be another exciting chapter of my life... changes is a frequent event in my life. i am quite certain i would be able to enjoy my new life in London too. i still cant believe i am going to london for 1 year for my MBA. this will be my first experience in a new place with totally no 1 to rely on. scary yet so exciting... feels like i could do anything if i get through this.

i know its wayyyyy too early to start saying my goodbyes, plus its only 1 year not like 4 years or anything but i think i will miss everyone!!! it will be so weird! i know i will make new friends. what if they dun like me? what if sth happened to me there? what if i fail?!?!?!? aaaarrrrrggghhhh....

anyways... dates to rem. 31st aug will be the start of my orientation. BUTTTTTTT will be backpacking europe with wanni!!! start backpacking on 27th july!!! so exciting!!! so many places i want to see and experience! dun let me die till then. please please please please....

~quarter life crisis...

2010-05-09T23:24:00.000-07:00

thinking bout it i think its really scary...

everyone is expected to:
1. get a dregee
2. have a kick ass carreer
3. get married
4. have kids
5. have your own place
6. car

all by 25/30!

thats really insane isn't it? imagine half of that time is spent trying to figure out the world. by the time u kinda get it u are expected all that. if not u are labled as failure. even if u only not doing that great in 1 dept.

oke... maybe i am having quarter life crisis right now.

~my belated 25th!

2010-05-01T09:26:00.000-07:00

This year my b dae with the same bunch of family can only be described in the following pics...

~read...

2010-04-26T07:24:00.000-07:00

Finally picked up a book for reading after the longest time. picked a book fr Harris cos they had sales at great world. so i got this book for $5. a bargain for me. its the Electric Michelangelo by Sarah Hall. got this cos she was the winner of the commonwealthwriters for best first novel award for HAWESWATER. prob will try to look out for that book if this is worth reading. besides that she got great review by the guardian, the times and independent.

after the 18th page, i realised how terrible my vocabulary is. i had to check so many words. at least 2 fr each pg. tsk tsk tsk... took me some time to realsied the author is from UK. all the time i was so convinced its in state. not that country is important in reading a book but it did take me by surprise. it took me quite some time to adjust my mind to translate the words into pictures. realsied how fun that could be...

On a diff note to all guys, read fr somewhere that when u said something bad to a woman, u need to tell her 5 good things to make up for it. for example, 'why would any idiot pay that much for that shoe?' then u have to make it up for it by saying 5 good things like 'I think u look great in that shoe' etc etc etc... i think its totally true. if you have nothing good to say, then just keep the not so good thing to urself. i think girls take criticism better fr fellow girls. for example, i think i wouldn't be so mad if my gf tell me i gained weight compared to guys. maybe... anyways... to all guys out there, just say all positive thing to spare urself of the trouble later on...

~25th...

2010-03-31T03:45:00.000-07:00

Now I understood why bakers or cooks dun eat their own food… oke it doesn’t help my food kinda disgusting either…

Anyways! Happy birthday to myself! I am officially a quarter century old. I survived this world for a quarter of century. Sounds so old… I guess this shd be the time for me to really do things to myself. Not that I haven for the past quarter century but this should be the time for me to really achieve what I always want to do like travelling study and do my own biz. Oke… I have been doing all these actually.

This year’s b dae a slight late celebration. Well… makes my b dae feels longer. Extended. How did I spend my b dae while I am here? Well… basically talking to mm. wow… so romantic. No choice I know her for 12 years alr!!! And I always celebrate my b dae with her except this year got to wait a lil. And not to forget cemin for calling me twice cos I was convinced he called me at 11 so that he could sleep earlier so I made him call me twice and andi all the way fr aussie! And of course tons of messages on phone and fb! Makes me totally not alone. So remembered and loved!

I wanted to celebrate this year at butter fact. U know… to act young and hip and all. But then I decided not to anymore cos I chickened out. Blah… lets just celebrate the old fashioned traditional way by hanging out at some restaurant. Blah!

~love my papa...

2010-03-28T06:22:00.000-07:00

growing up away fr my dad most of the time doesn't exactly makes us best friend. we prob only see him once a month. not that i am super tight with my mum. plus what can we talk bout while growing up? prob sch stuff. so...

but since i am all grown up now, i realsied there's so much to love bout him. everybody iu know like him. he's not the type that will talk crap to u. he'll just sit quietly and just listen if he doesn't know u. or sneak out when ever possible to smoke all by himself. so most of the time u cant find him in functions.

but he's the sweetest guy in the whole wide world. he'll hold my grandma hands when going up escalators (despite his tough image), has the cutest laugh and sometimes can be like little boy. these 2 days hasn't been great for me. headache, dizzy, cramp, diarroea and tummy ache. tummy ache been keeping me awake all night makes me wanna die. today when he called me i was half awake, as usual being a morning person started with scolding me for being in bed and all. when i said i am not feeling well he just insisted i see a doc without asking whats wrong with me. then as usual without waiting for me to finish just hang up.

he just called me a few mon ago. asked if i seen a doc. i said no cos i am feeling better now. and he started scolding me for not taking care of myself etc etc etc... and ended e conversation with him transfering money to me in case i need some thou i insisted i had enough. after the conversation i couldn't stop crying. i seriously love my daddy. he always makes me feel so safe and i could do anything in this world. he awalys always give us the best he could. i feel so loved thou i just got scoldings...

~fish...

2010-03-11T06:11:00.000-08:00

Today I bought a fish… from a hypermart…

I wanted to cook fish soup tmr. YES! I am going to cook sth. At first I tot it’ll be easy. Just choose a fish right? How hard can it be right…? When I got there I was quite overwhelmed by the different type of fish. So what kind of fish is good for soup? Does all fish taste good in soup? Dilemma… slightly daunted, felt like giving up, bought the safest deal ever, instant noodle, but in e end, still picked a red colour looking fish. How do a person decide what fish to pick? Does red eye means e fish is no good? How bout black eye? The person showed me the fins. What am I suppose to look out for? I dunno... Just tried to look super experienced at buying fish.

Then move on to my fav food ever! Chilli! Tot of getting only 10 strand of chilli. Pardon me for my lack of proper English here. Then they told me min half ons. Whats that? I just grabbed more just to make the weight. Wow… I have enough chilli to last me for a month. Does chilli last that long? I’ll find out.

~dream...

2010-03-02T07:39:00.000-08:00

being back in here makes it feels like life in sg was like a dream. short, sweet, but cant really rem what happened. only pictures tell the stories and be evidence that it wasn't a dream...

packing has really become a breeze. nothing i couldn't find here nor there. time to pack made it feels like i am about to wake up. its such a weird feeling. its like i am living 2 different life. a carefree one in sg and stressful one here. maybe thats y life here feels more real.

luckily sg is super efficient! i could go see doc in the morning, go collect my printings, home for lunch, go for 2 meetings, swimming with alex, meet suppplier, then meet irene and gang. wow! i did all that in 1 day... here i can only plan 1 thing at a time. cos it takes so long to travel and things are just more slow. or maybe cos i have v lil time then...

~fortune telling...

2010-02-11T21:05:00.000-08:00

happy cny and V dae everyone! this tiger year will be a loving year i assume~! hope its true for everyone. spread the love!

since cny is coming, cny gimmicks start appearing everywhere. discounts, goodies, ang paos promotions... even fortune telling. i think i will make a good fortune teller.

me: hmmm... if you past u have to work hard for what u wanted. for example education. u could score if u worked hard. sometimes a lil lazy but overall would have been better if you had worked harder (obviously, this applies to everyone. even the most pampered and lucky girl would think that she has to work hard to get what she wants)

me: in your relationship wise... i see that u have missed a few 'yuan fen'. a few of your potential soul mate have pass you by. but don't worry, this year you'll have better 'tao hua' this year try to be more open and give everyone a chance. i see alot of romance for you this year. (yeah... if u give everyone a chance u'll surely have some kind of romance)

me: your carreer wise... if you stay with ur current co, you will be promoted within this 2 years. if u take a change in carreer, you'll venture into new things but you have to start from beginning. but u will be successful in this new carreer path. (no body can tell if i am right or wrong...)

see! any other predictive qns?

is it end of the month alr? it feels insanely insanely fast... did jan just flew by? has 30 days passed since 2009? has 30 days passed since we celebrated new year? OMG...

jan 2010 is not a good one. its a super stressful month. stress made time flew even without me noticing. did i seriously manage to survive jan 2010? everyday is a new battle... before i manage to slay my current emenies new ones are coming to bite my ass hard and take a piece of me with them. i survived but bleeding badly and drying up... i wonder whats going to cost me to win this battle. an arm and a leg?

but in e end of the day still had to fight it all with a smile...

2010-01-20T06:19:00.000-08:00

now i realsied how good sg is! esp when it comes to doing business...

imagine this, your workers could be absent fr work cos of flood. which happend quite often and u can do nothing bout it. or... internet could be down for days! or... u just cant find any info about anything!

in sg, there's no valid excuse for being late. just cos its mega efficient!

excuse 1: cos bus was late
well... u shd have started off earlier.

excuse 2: erm... train broke down.
yeah right... for 20 seconds?

excuse 3: traffic jam
valid only on peak period!

in other places, anything goes! flood, snow, hurricane, etc etc etc... OMG!

~on my own...

2010-01-13T23:41:00.000-08:00

living by myself is quite a liberating experience. maybe i am a naturally loner person. so i liked my having my own space and time. i like having the whole place to myself. even cleaning the place up if fun. maybe cos i know i was the one who messed it up in e first place and i'll be the one enjoying the so-clean-you-can-eat-on-it floor and toilet. oke... maybe not the toilet yet.

due to e fact that i dun have anything at home, not even fridge or washing machine, i cant cook or do laundry. so i had to hand wash. i have hand wash my laundy! i am appreciating washing machine more! HATE doing laundry. its painful experience!

but living alone can be scary sometimes. when u hear noises. for me i just ignore them and go to sleep...

2009-12-25T17:08:00.000-08:00

Another random thought of e daY.

If killing, suicide, other hurting people actions are great sins, y did god made us capable of doing so? Y dun he/she made us all pure n good? Thats like abandoning a child with a book of rules n a knifw then punish him for hurting others or himself or making mistakes...

Y dun god make us all good n then this world will be a better place or not...

~random thoughts...

2009-12-25T08:04:00.000-08:00

another random thoughts of the day...

what if there's this piece of thorn prick u and it hurts alot! and the pain just wouldn't go away...

after a while, the pain becomes part of u and u just got numb to the pain that it doesn't feel pain anymore but the thourn is still there very visible. does that mean u are healed? what if u cant see the thorn anymore?

what if the thorn is still there and the u got used to the pain and the thorn is still there but the pain comes back when u see the thorn. or if the thorn is not there but u still feel e painw hen u are reminded of the scar. does it mean its healed?

hmmmm....

~a month...

Before I realise it, I’ve been in indo for a month! That’s my own personal dateline for being here and trying to set up sth here. I told myself to give it a try for a month before deciding to jump in fully with everything. Since its been more than a month now and I think we are ready to fully declared ourselves as operational!

I think not everyone knows the reason I am in indo. Basically I am trying to set up outsourcing of telemarketers from Singapore to Indonesia. Sounds easy? That’s what I thought at first too. Like how difficult it could be? Phew… its really not easy. Lets skip all e details. Basically me and ming mei managed to overcome a few obstacles. Had serious discussions and now we finally reached here! Not easy feat I think. I am so proud of ourselves!

Anyways… I am going back indo for Christmas and new year! Yayness! Missed everyone in sg! Picked a not so good month to start biz with all e hols coming up and not to mention birthdays! Few people to wish here… wishes are according to date and not in other order of preference

HAPPY BIRTHDAYS AMEERAH SHARAINEE ZAIN BTE SHARAINEE ZAIN (my most responsive reader of my blog)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEANDRIA CHEN YUTONG (my swimming kaki)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEK XIN YEN (gosh… I haven seen u for ages!)

More b dae to go this month of dec…

2009-11-21T09:06:00.001-08:00

super overdue post...

i love yogya! nice people, nice food, nice architecture. too many
things to blog bout, but! i have to blog bout kopi joss! OMG! thou i
am not a coffee drinker, i am sooooooooooooooo impressed by this
drink! so whats so special bout this drink?!?!?!? they add charcoal to
the drink! woohoo~ i was so excited to try this drink. its beyond
good! so exciting to see e charcoal burning hot and e smoke and
everything in the coffee.


i totally recommend this website for all those who wants to visit
yogya! http://www.yogyes.com/  i got all my info fr there and some
other website. but this is the best! i booked my hotel from this
website and they dun even ask for cc! totally trusting!

and the second thing i have to blog is the black beach i went! oke...
i know what it sounds like. its not black cos its dirty. that wouldn't
be worth blogging. but its sand is black! like so cool! it was my
first time and super exciting. i still have no idea y its black. and
we had seafood meal by the beach and its totally worth it! it only
cost us bout RP90,000 which is like less than SGD$15! and we even had
a crab to go along with it! a totaly must go if going yogya, but
transport will be costly...

~still photograph...

2009-11-09T09:42:00.001-08:00

i love travelling at night... especailly by public transport, when i don't have to worry or look out for anything.

the view outside the train or bus is like a really big pieces of photograph. most of the things are so still sometime u feel like the whole world is paused and u just pass through looking at each and everything more clearly and defined than before. it feels like even things are taking a break and resting to get ready for a brand new day soon...

when the perfect song play in ur player, it would really maje my trip...

~love like air...

2009-11-05T08:08:00.000-08:00

today somebody ask me what i think of love?

hmmmm... after pondering on it for some time, i replied, i think love is like air. i realised thats really my best ans at the moment.

love is like air, u need it all the time and u cant love w/o it. its true. no one will be able to survive w/o love. no one will be able to live in the world along and loveless. they will either live miserable or die... thankgoodness air is everywhere! this is what i think.

unfortunately, like air, its never the same, its always changing and moving, but its always there. there's no way to keep the same pieces of air within ourselves. its better to let it go and it might grow and come back to us in different time and form. the more we try to grab hold of it, the lesser we get...

when we are stressed, breate... when we are nervous, breathe, when we are sad, breathe...

~dos and don'ts in cambodia...

2009-10-17T03:06:00.000-07:00

back fr cambodia with ying! great trip! loved e trip despite everything else which i am not explaining in this entry. so what am i going to talk bout this entry???? is the do's and don'ts in cambodia. we stayed in okay guesthouse in phnom penh. i believe they explained v clearly what are the dos and don'ts...

firstly, please be aware that some escorts have been known to DRUG and ROB people. so for those who are looking for these kind of experienced, please be warned. the girls there are damn chio! thats despite the super dusty and not so hygenic or clean environment! y?!?!?!? whats their secret?!!??!? every girl we saw on the road or working is damn chio!

then, non profit restaurants or other public places. profits will always be made, not for the goals they say, like children, but for their own benefit. Do not believe everything. ask for NGO licence. ok i admit. i nearly fell for this trick. lucky ying was smarter than me. so dun be like me. be like ying. haha

Moto-bikes and tuk tuk drivers. always negotiate a fix price before you step on a moto-bike or in a tuk tuk. that will avoid problems afterwards. Do not react instant on stories that they are so poor and do not have income, most of them have. do not buy a moto-bike or tuk tuk for them, when you have gone they will sell themselves, because your money will never be used for the reasons you have given it to them. YOU ARE A TOURIST, NOT AN ATM MACHINE. Give respect, but also want respect for yourself. seriously... i never thought tourist will buy a tuk tuk for locals. tourist are so naiive and nice!

Beggers. Be very selective in giving money. most of the time your money will be used for gambling, alcohol and drugs. Yes, children dot hat. the best is to give food or drinks, but open the package and/or cans before you give it otherwise they will sell it. YOU ARE A TOURIST, NOT AN ATM MACHINE. i seriously cannot imagine kids go into alcohol and drugs but i guess it happens...

Children book and flowersellers. Be aware that this is a kind of modern slavery and child abuse. STOP buying and the system will STOP! at first i din think of it this way. but i agree with this solution. at first i thought i am doing a good thing. then i realise its all for the wrong cause. we should stop encouraging them to use children as a source of income! they should be studying in school! no matter how sad or pathetic they seemed or u need the thing they selling anyways don't buy fr them! a lesson i, myself have to learn...

bed bugs! damn it!!!! i ahve the most horrible bed bugs bites ever! sigh... in efforts to save money. suffering...... check ur room and bed before going to bed people!!!!

~500 days of summer...

2009-10-12T10:47:00.000-07:00

you should know upfront, this is not a love story

just catch 500 days of summer. it helps watching this show wiithout much expectations i guess... its the kind of movie i would usually give a pass thou i know it would be good. just like p.s i love you. those movies i wouldn't purposely watch. but i would watch if i wanna catch a movie but there's no blockbustors i can watch at that point of time. its characters aren't worth millions of dollars but they are so cute in their own way.

anyways... this whow bout this guy who got dumped. its interesting how its a movie about a guy who is helplessly romantic but got dump. i mean... i would normally link these situations with girls. and i know it happened to guys too. but i think what makes this show so interesting is that its like saying "hei, it happens to we guys too" i think the fact that they use a guy instead a girl makes e show more original.

anyways... i think e show has its funny moments. real and basically helps people to get over break ups. so good for those who need to get over someone. a lil too draggy some parts and long foe my liking. so some parts are boring and slow and meaningless. but overall i think its a good movie worth watching even on weekends! its a show where u have things to discuss and talk with other people after e show ended.

~ceritifed diver alert!ne

2009-09-15T07:36:00.000-07:00

i am a certified diver! woohoo~ coolness. diving is more fun than expected. dayang is not as nice as expected. redang is still the best! totally miss redang!!! anyways... DO NOT learn diving at big bubble. esp if u are a girl. totally disgusted by instructors. like live in forest never see girls before. totally make my diving experience imperfect! ggggggggrrrrrrr...

next trip is cambodia with ying! nearly din make it cos we were like to go ot not to go. but dun care liao... bought our plane tix! point of no return! i am so excited! excited for what? read carefully!

"Thunder Ranch shooting range, near Cheoung Ek. Moto drivers, apparently oblivious to the reaction most visitors have, will try to include this in a trip to the killing fields. Rumors abound that cows and other farm animals used to serve as targets, but this is probably no longer the case. Prices range from US$40 for an AK-47 to US$200 for a rocket launcher."

totally coolness! i want to launch rocket too! but i have to think bout it cos of e price! y so expensive???? i am super duper excited! rocket here i come!

~change...

2009-09-03T10:06:00.000-07:00

i always thought... if only this were like this or... if only that someone would be kinder, nicer, more patient etc etc etc... but recently i realised, if someone near me do change, i realised it might be a good thing for e world and in general, but i felt like something is lost. for example, you always wished ur friend is nicer to u. but once she became really nice, its no longer e same. then i realised i din like that person cos she's nice or kind or perfect, but i like that person cos she/he is imperfect... wouldn't this world be boring if everyone is perfect? now i no longer wish anyone to be anything other then themselves...

recently i also realised... that i no longer the person i always thought i am. isn't that weird? i always have this image or perception of myself in my head. but recently many people describe me not as what i always thought myself to be. i feel like i am losing myself or more accurately no longer recognise myself. its e queeriest feeling. luckily the description has been nice. that helps...

i think i shd try understand myself better more...

~500th post...

2009-08-20T09:06:00.000-07:00

Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.

Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.

The moral:

It doesn't matter if you are a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you better be running.

for my 500th post... so intellectual

~bird park...

2009-08-06T02:50:00.000-07:00

i finally went to a bird park despite my effort not to ever ever go there cos i always tot its stupid to pay to visit a bird park to see birds. i mean seriously, all kind of birds? so i did went to one today. at first we din want to go there but my papa keep insiting and keep saying that we say we'll go if he go and he did! surprise surprised...

see how excited he is? he is like a lil boy. i felt like i brought my lil bro out. haha... this is my papa who refude to leave indo if he was given a choice and refuse to go anywhere fun. and his version of fun is to slack one corner and smoke and drink beer. he claimed his fav hobby is drinking beer. is that even a hobby?

anyways i changed my mind. its quite a decent place to go when u are bored.

a million people says i look like my papa. do i? hmmmmm...

~expectations...

2009-07-30T18:39:00.000-07:00

if someone doesn't meet ur expectations but that person alr did his best to his ability what do we do? do we lower our expectations? or make the other person achieve your expectations? its so difficult to manage people's expectations. do i live up to ur expectations?

but doesn't making someone live up to ur expectations change e person? but what if e change for e better? but who are we to say what is better? what if the other person doesn't want to change? do we change our expectations? what if we don't like what they changed into? is it our fault? will we still like that person?

where does expectations come fr? the people around us i guess... so i blame the people around me. haha... too many qns...

i think i will be a terrible mum...

~recommendations...

2009-07-26T23:55:00.000-07:00

~roadtrip!

2009-07-11T20:25:00.001-07:00

finally did a road trip to jeff's place! which we said we going to do like half a year ago at least! its so fun! i love everything bout roadtrips, the super early meet up (maybe not so early for us), the randomness like we can go anywhere we want and we like, the impromtuness, the discovering things we never expected and the food!

however, due to toooooooooooooooo many unglam pic thanks to our photographer, i shall just choose a few decent pics to post here. more will be from alex camera cos i believe those would be more presentable...

~a story to share...

2009-07-09T08:07:00.000-07:00

this story is ripped fr ming mei's. just thought its really remind us not to hurt anyone. thanks to ming mei for sharing the story!

Do Not Hurt Yourself

One night a snake while it was looking for food, entered a carpenter’s workshop.

The carpenter, who was a rather untidy man, had left several of his tools lying on the floor. One of them was a saw. As the snake went round and round the shop, he climbed over the saw, which gave him a little cut.

At once, thinking that the saw was attacking him, he turned around and bit it so hard that his mouth started to bleed. This made him very angry. He attacked again and again until the saw was covered with blood and seemed to be dead.

Dying from his own wounds, the snake decided to give one last hard bite then turned away. The next morning the carpenter was surprised to find a dead snake on his doorstep.

Lesson to Learn:Sometimes in trying to hurt others, we only hurt ourselves.

~online biz...

2009-07-04T08:59:00.000-07:00

today we had a photoshoot with some clothes my cousin selling online. its so fun with me being the photographer. below are some of e pics i really like! not so pro as i hoped it would turned out. wished i had more time adjust focus and lighting and colour. taking pics of people are really challenging!!!

in case anyone interested in e clothes can visit blacketernity.com but my cousin says they'll be having sale soon. but i dunno if its on yet. clothes below is not up on e web yet. so wait patiently!

hope everyone enjoy e pics!

~pics to share...

2009-07-03T03:42:00.000-07:00

i am so proud i did this! its real in case u are wondering...

i just HAD to share this pic with everyone. its so funny to see her hair colour match the drinks they having! obviously this had to be done secretly...

~interesting...

2009-06-26T09:49:00.000-07:00

i feel that the most impt thing i learnt fr this trip i to appreciate my parents' friends and relatives. without them this trip wouldn't be so great. i used to think they are just nuisance. my parent's problems. doesn't concern me. when they were in sg, i just hope they dun bother me at all. but they were so nice to me here! i feel so bad for thinking that way.

interesting phrase i heard while i am here

'to revenge those girls who stole your bf, is to let them have him'

oke...not exactly how i heard it but u get the main thing right? right! yay!

another intersting thing i know here. every area in indo has their own mother tounge. like bandung mother toungue is sunda but main language of communication is indo.like eng in sg and manadrin as mother toungue. its so cool cos indo has so many districts. imagine like in sg, woodland people learning woodnease then tampines learning tamenes then orchard people learn townese.haha... bandung and jakarta is like only 1.5hrs away and they have different moter toungue. but now! so shocking!!! jakarta kids learning mandarin!!! -o-

~spy cam...

2009-06-25T02:06:00.000-07:00

this is sth intersting i learnt fr ningsih. she was telling me bout someone who knows someone who knows bout this thing called spy cam in hotel rooms and even in backpackers toilet! this person is a constant backpackers and been to places like india and united state. i always wonder if there's camera around in hotel room and how to know

this is biggest secret of all time!!! she said must off all light in the room. then look out for red lights. she said she saw in a few places. the red light is caused by the video cam. usually its a v v v v v small hole which no 1 would notice. only can be noticed when e entire room is pitch black. so next time b4 u all stay in hotel room, can do simple checks.

~hell journey..

2009-06-24T08:37:00.000-07:00

the only words that can describe indo is...

'the roads to heaven in hell!'

alot of indo places is beautiful and super nice like heaven, but the journey... i feel like killing someone. cant wait for indo to be developed and have smooth nice journey....

~bandung...

2009-06-22T09:29:00.000-07:00

did i mention i love jakarta?cos they have everything here. i want to make a correction I LOOOOOVVVVVEEEEEE BANDUNG!

the things are super cheap, place is super nice, food is super delicious and weather is extremely nice!!!! lets see... the stuff i bought are never above $15 food is super cheap, places are like postcard perfect pictures with my lousy camera, weather is like cameron highland!!! i even went to strawberry farm! i alr miss bandung!!! and i tot no where can beat us shopping. i was wrong... i din know my country have such great stuff. i heard yogyakarta is even cheaper. save me!!!

due to too many super nice pics... i will do photo blogging on fb instead... but will take some time since i dun have my card reader now... take note of e captions!

~realisation...

2009-06-15T07:48:00.000-07:00

i just found out the condo manager of my place just passed away... its a really sad news. he was a really nice man. friendly, helpful and adores every of our family member. he thinks the world of us. he did so much for us. so sad to hear the news. it was so sudden and i thought he went for holiday. i hope he left in peace and doesn't suffer so much... its so sudden and i realise i dun really know much about him. i just know he has relatives in india and he was suppose to migrate to australia and retire there. i am such an uncurious person...

today i got a realisation that people do have their own agenda. this world sucks! especially older more powerful men! aaaaarrrrrggggghhhh... its true that there are no true friends after school! people who we know at work are just opportunist! so fake so fake so fake!!! maybe its just good that i know earlier then later. or its goos that some people just expose their tails earlier then later. i must be thankful for situation which lead to him being desperate that shows his tail. maybe i am wrong. maybe i think too much. i hate to be taken on a ride or advantage of!

~happily ever after...

2009-06-04T22:32:00.000-07:00

happily ever after...

these words facinate me in alot of ways... i am facinate by the possibilities, by the people who truly believe in them and people who vouch for them. does it really exist? do u look for them or do they look for me? are they sold off the shelves? can i buy just a dozen of them. just in case u know...

its like believeing in santa clause. those who truly believe belive in giveing etc etc etc. but me, i will think of how is he going to come down fr chimney, how he park his slate and deer and so many kids to give presents to. hmmmm... not so possible after all.

sadly, i am a realist who choose to belive in imperfections and solutions and perceptions. i guess marketing is really the path for me.

however, i truly wish with all my heart to those who believe in happy endings will get the happy endings they always dream of....

~lesser evil...

2009-05-26T06:44:00.000-07:00

been thinking of this lately...

is it better to do alot of good and evil at e same time or not do either?

which is the lesser evil?

~jumping into toxic waste does not give you super powers???

2009-05-13T08:04:00.000-07:00

~dead....

2009-05-12T05:28:00.000-07:00

help!!! my hair is dead!!!

its not really dead. its just straight and limp and so dead like and so straight!!! oke... i straighten my hair. and now its dead!!! do i regret? i dunno... maybe. we'll see in a few days time. i still have not learnt my lesson fr my last rebonding disaster. i tot maybe this time it'll be different. maybe i was bored at home so i decided to do sth to my hair. i need to work!

wake up hair

on the topic of dead, ameerah just told me her ex student just jumped and commited suicide. its not suppose to sound so casual. i hope he is at heaven now. she said its because he cant finish a math exam on that day. its so sad... i hope there are no more stuff like that in future. its so scary to think how a 10 year old think of stuff like jumping and death and i wonder how we all survive in the past. i hope all parents will learn from stuff like this and not let stuff like this happens.

god bless the kid's soul...

~in case u haven heard...

2009-05-06T05:51:00.000-07:00

in case u haven heard... i am not going to elope to europe for 6 months anymore. cos of... swine flu! kidding. not really cos of that. but even if we are planning to go prob will take that into considerations. basically i am not going to europe anymore.

in case in case u haven know either, i quit my job. like 2 weeks ago. wow... i have been slacking for 2 weeks~! yipeeee~ so basically nothing much to blog cos i ahve been busy studying and no i am not looking for any job. i am taking 6 months break!

~swine flu...

2009-04-30T05:29:00.000-07:00

been having runny nose for a few days now...

cos of the recent swine flu virus, i got a lil scared. so i decided to do some research

did u know?

The H1N1 form of swine flu is one of the descendants of the Spanish flu that caused a devastating pandemic in humans in 1918–1919

means it has existed for a long long long loooooooooong period of time.

symptoms:

Symptoms include fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue

phew... lucky i only got runny nose... why they call it swine flu when runny nose not included?

how it spread:

Influenza spreads between humans through coughing or sneezing and people touching something with the virus on it and then touching their own nose or mouth.^[27] Swine flu cannot be spread by pork products, since the virus is not transmitted through food

which means we still can eat pork! yay! take care people!

thanks to wikipedia!

~70 cents dinner...

2009-04-20T04:19:00.000-07:00

today is mon. my usual classes are on tue and wed. but mua have decided to go for class today cos i might have to work late tmr. cos sometimes i will sneak into other classes so i can skip my classes on tue.

happy me feeling smart, walk to sch feeling... basically smart. when i want to buy dinner as usual to eat in class i realised smart me forgot bring wallet. luckily smart me left some money in pencil case in case mua need to buy some thing small during exam or just in case. after searching i have a grand total of 70 cents in my case!

still feeling rather smart me started walking around centre point to look for 70 cents dinner. HALO! how can food be so ex! even cup noodle cheapest is 1 bucks. i was super duper mega extremely 300% tempted to steal a cup noodle. imagine being caught stealing cut noodle the embarrassment!!!!

after long search the cheapest food there i can find is either mac D cone ice cream or tau sar pao. i ended buying pao cos its e most reasonable and i was starving! feeling slightly smarter, me headed towards my class. upon reaching outside the usual class i cant find my class! i looked fr e notice board and i still cant find my class. so i read my schedule. i have no class on mon and so is the rest of the world -.-'''

so i go home with my 70 cents pao... feeling not so smart after all...

~personality test...

2009-03-15T20:27:00.000-07:00

http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx

Personality test. feel like i have done it before, but its still interesting to do it again...

i will add some of my comments too...

Your view on yourself:

You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you.

ME: aaaawwww... don't u all agree? please stand up please stand up!

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are not looking merely for a girl/boyfriend - you are looking for your life partner. Perhaps you should be more open-minded about who you spend time with. The person you are looking for might hide their charm under their exterior.

Me: i should go on dates more??? or i am too lazy to change bf??? i think second more likely

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

Me: ok. i finally see it. i am just too lazy

The seriousness of your love:

You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.

Me: beautiful love! is there ugly love? hhhhmmmmmm....

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

Me: of course! education rawkz! me so smart

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

Me: erm... yeah right, i am just being sarcastic

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

Me: i hope so... i will be successful, i'll be successful, i'll be successful *chants*

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Me: really???

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

Me: aaaaawwww... its a sign! i should set up a consultancy agency or sth

~he's not that into you...

2009-03-06T20:13:00.000-08:00

i watched he's not that into you.since there was so many mix reviews here's wat i think...

its worth watching cos of all e powerful cast there. i admit thats my reason too. so thats a smart move. they ahve drew barrymore, jenifer anniston *screams* i love them. half the show i was drooling over how hot jennifer anniston is. she's soooooooooooooooo hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhooooooooooootttttttttt! at her age, i hope i have enough energy to get out of e bed....

basically the show is about this girl who is looking for 'the one' and she dates and look everywhere for 'the one'. not a brainer but its simple and easy to digest. and there were other characters trying to get their r/s in place too there.

but... i think it a good movie. its a slap in the face calling u all to wake up kind fo show. if he doesn't call he's not interested! full stop! he din lose ur no, he's not saving the world fr e brink of destruction, he's not eaten by a lion. its true! so wake up! its e same goes to guys. if she doesn't bother to reply, move on. actually i think e show teaches people to move on and see r/s in a different light.

there are many funny moments in the show. like e gay part and the run part. i am not a spoiler just watched out for them. of course as all western movie, most has a happy ending. it gives people hope. hoping u are the exception to that exceptional person.

i think all girls should watch it. its a true chick flick. so id unno if guys could appreciate it. BUT!!! just watch for fun and not as a bible or anything. rem... its just a movie.

p/s rule 1: if he doesn't call he's not interested.
my additional rule: if she doesn't reply so fast or soon she's not interested either.

~guys...

2009-03-04T21:45:00.001-08:00

start of 2009, i have strated working with guys. everyone around me are guys! everyday i work with guys. i dun work with any girls at all! sounds good? not really... they are all above 40. good and not so good. fortunately the guys i work with are decent and respect me, hmmm... actually i think they think i am part of e guys -.-'''

one of them have his wife name behind his name. thats so sweet right? he said his wife has e same thing. another one wants to intro me to his wife cos he says he always intro the females he working with to his wife. aaaawwwww.... and always showing me his children pics. so cute...

anyways... i think guys are damn fake! cannot stand them. they can laugh and smile and joke and behind they tell us not to tell them much bout our work and be wary of them. and their jokes are so not funny! oke... maybe their jokes are not lame enough for me.

The good thing is that they dun dare bully me cos they think i am girl and weak! muahahahaha...

if u rem the gambling addict advert, where a father was talking to his daugher trying to convince her to give up her piggy bank. totally good advert. totally deserve credit and award. totally impactful.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!!!

tonight i just watched a movie called slumdog millionaire. i think... this show is not for the faint hearted. u've been warned!

i heard great things bout this show. i tot i was prepared for this show. truth is... nothing prepares me for this show. i tot it'll be funny sad and happy ending. there was mixture of those but more! i am super duper duper traumatized by this part of the show. i shall not be a spoiler. it still gives me butterflies in my stomach. even now... maybe its e food. hmmmm... thou i knew such incidents do exist and i alr prepared myself for the worst, but to actually see it on screen traumatize me! maybe it doesn't have the same effect to everyone. i still can feel it in my stomach. i still feel like puking... it feel like my stomach is shivering and my head is spinning. i hope i can sleep tonight. i wish there is a bed time story to make everything better...

overall! super great highly recommneded show for the brave hearts. super life changing and really makes u think and see the world a lil differently. i love fantastic movies like this. totally worth the butterflies in my stomach now.

i think humans are weirdest creature in the world. thou they know its going to hurt like hell, they still do it. even when the whole world says not to do it they will still do it, even when they know whats good for them they still deny it... sadly i am also human. why i did half the things i did i can never explain myself in this lifetime. maybe sth is really wrong with my brain or i am just really different or i am just really the same as everyone.

i wish life is simple when 1 + 1 = 2 and not come up with E=MC2 i wish i have stronger stamina to hold on to the things i love. so many wishes so little time... i feel so tired. i just want to hide in a cave and rot and grow mould. i just want to let go even if its wrong, or if it hurts or its stupid. i am stupid. let those brainy people rule the world. i just want to be myself and love...

2009-02-10T22:25:00.000-08:00

i think i am glad i am born a girl. girls like to play games. like to play hard to get. like to throw tantrums. so confusing... the only advise i can give is... no choice. programmed like that. haha... too bad for u guys...

work's been... ever changing. i feel like i am only wasting my time in office. i just feel like sleeping everyday at work. and i barely do anything at work. gggrrrrr... my work life is so uneventful. its so boring, i am blogging about how boring it is.
